Synopsis

*****Audiobook format of The Songs of a Warrior - ECPA's 2024 Young People's Literature Award WINNER*****

Bible stories from 1 and 2 Samuel brought to life in this dramatic chapter book. This dramatic retelling of the accounts of the first two kings of Israel follows the intertwining stories of Jonathan, Saul, David and Michal documented in 1 and 2 Samuel. In this imaginative yet biblically faithful book, readers will find themselves immersed in the hearts and minds of the key players as they experience battles, intrigue, plots, betrayal, love, and friendship. This resource is a great way to help kids aged 8-12 engage with God’s word. They’ll be left thinking about what it means to trust God and realizing that only Jesus can really be the king God’s people need. Makes a wonderful gift for children aged 8-12. Includes a Bible-reading plan for the life of David and notes that differentiate the known facts from the imaginative parts. A book club discussion guide is also included. Perfect for homeschool co-ops.

It was pretty good, but it jumped around in time a lot (years and years) and made me feel quite disconnected from the characters.......more

Goodreads review by Bailey T. on February 08, 2023

Really enjoyed this Middle-grade read about David and Saul. I thought all the special fiction touches added to the characters in just the right ways. The content is mature but not so difficult that a 12 year old couldn’t follow along. I am so excited to pass this to down to my son when he is ready t......more

Goodreads review by Josh on January 29, 2023

The Good Book Company hit my radar several years ago with their excellent children’s books—Tales that Tell the Truth, in particular. They’ve recently expanded into middle grade/YA literature beginning with The Songs of a Warrior, a retelling of the story of Saul and David. The description of “retell......more
